We are a big team with members in different institutions (3), so timing work and payment for the different members from one institution to others is already overwhelming to think about.

Takeaway: (This is my first grant and development project, and) this whole process is more than a little intimidating, but my takeaway today is how many resources (both as folks to reach out to and as materials to stockpile) are available to us. It really helps me start to feel less nervous!

Challenge: Grappling with and anchoring all the moving pieces... confronting and besting the "bitten off more than can chew" feeling. :)

#MomentofTruth, I feel a little uneasy about Press Books and anticipate challenges, but I remain hopeful because support is available!
